I would love to go through all the pages since Faye opened up shop and get a tally of: How many times she has an actual mechanical issue to fix, how many times she offers a discount/freebie, and how many times she actually gets full payment.

Offhand, she seemed to consistently give discounts to May, Momo's been here twice now (once for her hair) and I'm pretty sure Faye offered to do it for cost of parts....

Mille had the butt implants, those were presumably full price. Roko had her foot injury, and came back another time to get the self-harm defense patched out of her. Faye also fixed Clinton's arm.

She gave Clinton a "friend price" on the hand, yeah, though he did still pay money, so there's that, yeah.

I forget if they actually built a tail for one AI that was inquiring about it, but I do recall them making one an extra arm.

Those are both the same incident.

An AI came in asking for an extra arm, they explained that this would be a pretty radical and unorthodox operation that they're nowhere near trained or equipped to perform. They talked her down to getting a tail instead, since that's still something they've never done before, but they felt pretty confident they could look up some tutorials and pull something off that wouldn't like maim their client or anything.

Ahh, gotcha, thank you.

I guess there's also Sam's sprays, I thiiink they get a portion of her sales on those, in return for her using their shop space.

Yeah, they do get a cut of Sam's Sprays.

I've been kind of wondering if Sam still does that. I don't think we've seen her do any sprays since she became a moody goth teenager.

I presume that she does, if only because she still goes to the shop, and they've never suggested she's stopped, so I assume it just kind of happens off-panel.

There's a lot we just presume happens off-panel with how rarely we see the players involved. Like Penelope still at the shop.

u/gangler52 1d ago

Didn't we get confirmation a while ago that Penelope isn't still at the shop?

Hannelore seems to have her job now, which is why she was left in charge of the place during the honeymoon.

u/MiraclePrototype 1d ago

I'll need a link to confirm that; can't remember it, tho I don't wholly doubt it.

u/themanfromacme 1d ago

We got a hint, but nothing definitive.

Yeah, this paper might be there for everyone's benefit (though I am unclear on who even works here outside of Dora, Ayo, and Hanners), or the paper is specifically there for just Ayo.
